  • OSI Open System Interconnection
  • the physical layer uses a physical channel to provide an information transfer service to a higher layer.
  • the physical layer is connected with a medium access control (MAC) layer located thereabove via a transport channel, and data is transferred between the physical layer and the MAC layer via the transport channel. Also, between respectively different physical layers, namely, between the respective physical layers of the transmitting side (transmitter) and the receiving side (receiver), data is transferred via a physical channel.

  • the Medium Access Control (MAC) layer of Layer 2 provides services to a radio link control (RLC) layer (which is a higher layer) via a logical channel.
  • RLC radio link control
  • the RLC layer of Layer 2 supports the transmission of data with reliability. It should be noted that if the RLC functions are implemented in and performed by the MAC layer, the RLC layer itself may not need to exist.
  • the PDCP layer of Layer 2 performs a header compression function that reduces unnecessary control information such that data being transmitted by employing Internet Protocol (IP) packets, such as IPv4 or IPv6, can be efficiently sent over a radio interface that has a relatively small bandwidth.
  • IP Internet Protocol
  • the Radio Resource Control (RRC) layer located at the lowermost portion of Layer 3 is only defined in the control plane, and handles the control of logical channels, transport channels, and physical channels with respect to the configuration, re-configuration and release of radio bearers (RB).
  • the RB refers to a service that is provided by Layer 2 for data transfer between the mobile terminal and the UTRAN.
  • channels used in downlink transmission for transmitting data from the network to the mobile terminal there is a Broadcast Channel (BCH) used for transmitting system information, and a downlink Shared Channel (SCH) used for transmitting user traffic or control messages.

  • a HARQ operation is performed in a MAC (Medium Access Control) layer for an effective data transmission.
  • MAC Medium Access Control
  • FIG. 4 is an exemplary view showing a HARQ operation method for an effective data transmission.
  • a base station or eNB may transmit downlink scheduling information (referred as 'DL scheduling information' hereafter) through a PDCCH (Physical Downlink Control Channel) in order to provide data to a terminal (UE) during a HARQ operation.
  • the DL scheduling information may include a UE identifier (UE ID), a UE group identifier (Group ID), an allocated radio resource assignment, a duration of the allocated radio resource assignment, a transmission parameter (e.g., Modulation method, payload size, MIMO related information, etc), HARQ process information, a redundancy version, or a new data indicator (NID), etc.
  • UE ID UE identifier
  • Group ID UE group identifier
  • an allocated radio resource assignment e.g., a duration of the allocated radio resource assignment
  • a transmission parameter e.g., Modulation method, payload size, MIMO related information, etc
  • the terminal performs multiple HARQ processes
  • the multiple HARQ processes are operated synchronously. Namely, each HARQ process is allocated synchronously in every transmission time interval (TTI).
  • TTI transmission time interval
  • a HARQ process 1 may perform in a first transmission time interval (TTI 1)
  • a HARQ process 2 may perform in TTI 2
  • a HARQ process 8 may perform in TTI 8
  • the HARQ process 1 may again perform in TTI 9
  • the HARQ process 2 may again perform in TTI 10, etc.
  • the HARQ processes are allocated in synchronous manner, a certain HARQ process associated with a TTI which receives a PDCCH for initial transmission of a particular data may be used for such data transmission. For example, if the terminal receives a PDCCH including an uplink scheduling information in Nth TTI, the terminal may actually transmit a data in N+4 TTI.
  • the HARQ retransmission of the terminal is operated in a non-adaptive manner. That is, an initial transmission of a particular data is possible only when the terminal receives a PDCCH including an uplink scheduling information. However, the HARQ retransmission of the data can be possibly operated without receiving the PDCCH, as next TTI allocated to a corresponding HARQ process can be used with same uplink scheduling information.
  • transmission parameters may be transmitted through a control channel such as a PDCCH, and these parameters may be varied with a channel conditions or circumstances. For example, if a current channel condition is better than a channel condition of an initial transmission, higher bit rate may be used by manipulating a modulation scheme or a payload size. In contrast, if a current channel condition is worst than a channel condition of an initial transmission, lower bit rate may be used.
  • the terminal checks an uplink scheduling information by monitoring a PDCCH in every TTI. Then, the terminal transmits data through a PUSCH based on the uplink scheduling information. The terminal firstly generates the data in a MAC PDU format, and then stores it in a HARQ buffer. After that, the terminal transmits the data based on the uplink scheduling information. Later, the terminal waits to receive a HARQ feedback from a base station (eNB). If the terminal receives a HARQ NACK from the base station in response to the transmitted data, the terminal retransmits the data in a retransmission TTI of a corresponding HARQ process.
  • eNB base station
  • the terminal receives a HARQ ACK from the base station in response to the transmitted data, the terminal terminates to operate the retransmission of the HARQ.
  • the terminal counts a number of transmissions (i.e. CURRENT_TX_NB) whenever the data is transmitted in a HARQ process. If the number of transmissions is reached to a maximum number of transmissions, which set by an upper layer, data in the HARQ buffer is flushed.
  • the HARQ retransmission is performed according to a HARQ feedback from a base station, a data existence in the HARQ buffer, or a transmission time of a corresponding HARQ process.
  • each of HARQ process may have a HARQ buffer respectively.
  • the value in the NDI (New Data Indicator) field contained in the PDCCH may be used for the UE to determine whether the received data is an initial transmission data or a retransmitted data. More specifically, the NDI field is 1 bit field that toggles every time a new data is transmitted or received. (0 -> 1 -> 0 -> 1 -> ...) As such, the value in the NDI for the retransmitted data always has a same value used in an initial transmission. From this, the UE may know an existence of retransmitted data by comparing these values.
  • the base station eNB
  • the base station must manage or handle all data or signals, which are transmitted by the terminals within the cell, in order to prevent the interferences between the terminals. Namely, the base station must adjust or manage a transmission timing of the terminals upon each terminal's condition, and such adjustment can be called as the timing alignment maintenance.
  • One of the methods for maintaining the timing alignment is a random access procedure.
  • the base station receives a random access preamble transmitted from the terminal, and the base station can calculate a time alignment (Sync) value using the received random access preamble, where the time alignment value is to adjust (i.e., faster or slower) a data transmission timing of the terminal.
  • the calculated time alignment value can be notified to the terminal by a random access response, and the terminal can update the data transmission timing based on the calculated time alignment value.
  • the base station may receive a sounding reference symbol (SRS) transmitted from the terminal periodically or randomly, the base station may calculate the time alignment (Sync) value based on the SRS, and the terminal may update the data transmission timing according to the calculated time alignment value.
  • SRS sounding reference symbol
  • the base station may measure a transmission timing of the terminal though a random access preamble or SRS, and may notify an adjustable timing value to the terminal.
  • the time alignment (Sync) value i.e., the adjustable timing value
  • 'TAC' time advance command
  • the TAC may be process in a MAC (Medium Access control) layer. Since the terminal does not camps on a fixed location, the transmission timing is frequently changed based on a terminal's moving location and/or a terminal's moving velocity. Concerning with this, if the terminal receives the time advance command (TAC) from the base station, the terminal expect that the time advance command is only valid for certain time duration.
  • TAC time advance command
  • a time alignment timer is used for indicating or representing the certain time duration.
  • the time alignment timer is started when the terminal receives the TAC (time advance command) from the base station.
  • the TAT value is transmitted to the terminal (UE) through a RRC (Radio Resource Control) signal such as system information (SI) or a radio bearer reconfiguration.
  • SI system information
  • the terminal if the terminal receives a new TAC from the base station during an operation of the TAT, the TAT is restarted. Further, the terminal does not transmit any other uplink data or control signal (e.g., data on physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH), control signal on Physical uplink control channel (PUCCH)) except for the random access preamble when the TAT is expired or not running.
  • PUSCH physical uplink shared channel
  • PUCCH Physical uplink control channel
  • a MAC layer of the terminal and base station handles a time alignment (synchronize) management.
  • the TAC is generated in the MAC layer of the base station, and the MAC layer of the terminal receives the TAC through a MAC message from the base station.
  • the base station transmits the MAC message including the TAC in a HARQ process, and the terminal attempts to receive the data.
  • the terminal transmits a NACK signal to the base station if the terminal fails to decode the data.
  • the terminal receives an uplink scheduling information through a PDCCH for a transmission of data 1. Then, the terminal transmits the data 1 to the base station using the HARQ process. In response to the transmitted data 1, the terminal receives a NACK from the base station. Therefore the terminal has to retransmit the data 1, however, the TAT of the terminal can be expired before a retransmission of the data 1. In this situation, the terminal can not possibly retransmit the data 1 due to expiry of the TAT. Therefore, the terminal restarts the TAT after receiving a TAC from the base station though a random access channel (RACH) procedure.
  • RACH random access channel
  • the terminal still transmits data 1 at a transmission timing of the HARQ process because the data 1 is still stored in a HARQ buffer of the terminal.
  • the transmission of the data 1 is not expected by the base station, this data transmission can be collided with other data transmission by other terminals.
  • an object of the present invention is to provide a method of processing data for a HARQ (Hybrid Automatic Repeat reQuest) in a wireless communication system, and more particularly, for an optimized uplink HARQ operation when time alignment timer is not running or at an expiry of time alignment timer.
  • HARQ Hybrid Automatic Repeat reQuest

  • HARQ Hybrid Automatic Repeat Request
  • this disclosure is shown to be implemented in a mobile communication system, such as a UMTS developed under 3GPP specifications, this disclosure may also be applied to other communication systems operating in conformity with different standards and specifications.
  • a terminal may perform a random access procedure in the following cases: 1) when the terminal performs an initial access because there is no RRC Connection with a base station (or eNB), 2) when the terminal initially accesses to a target cell in a handover procedure, 3) when it is requested by a command of a base station, 4) when there is uplink data transmission in a situation where uplink time synchronization is not aligned or where a specific radio resource used for requesting radio resources is not allocated, and 5) when a recovery procedure is performed in case of a radio link failure or a handover failure.
  • the base station allocates a dedicated random access preamble to a specific terminal, and the terminal performs a non-contention random access procedure which performs a random access procedure with the random access preamble.
  • the terminal performs a non-contention random access procedure which performs a random access procedure with the random access preamble.
  • there are two procedures in selecting the random access preamble one is a contention based random access procedure in which the terminal randomly selects one within a specific group for use, another is a non-contention based random access procedure in which the terminal uses a random access preamble allocated only to a specific terminal by the base station.
  • the difference between the two random access procedures is that whether or not a collision problem due to contention occurs, as described later.
  • the non-contention based random access procedure may be used, as described above, only in the handover procedure or when it is requested by the command of the base station.
  • Figure 5 shows an operation procedure between a terminal and a base station in a contention based random access procedure.
  • a terminal in the contention based random access randomly may select a random access preamble within a group of random access preambles indicated through system information or a handover command, may select PRACH resources capable of transmitting the random access preamble, and then may transmit the selected random access preamble to a base station (Step 1).
  • the terminal may attempt to receive a response with respect to its random access preamble within a random access response reception window indicated through the system information or the handover command (Step 2). More specifically, the random access response information is transmitted in a form of MAC PDU, and the MAC PDU may be transferred on the Physical Downlink Shared Channel (PDSCH). In addition, the Physical Downlink Control Channel (PDCCH) is also transferred such that the terminal appropriately receives information transferred on the PDSCH. That is, the PDCCH may include information about a terminal that should receive the PDSCH, frequency and time information of radio resources of the PDSCH, a transfer format of the PDSCH, and the like.

  • the terminal may appropriately receive the random access response transmitted on the PDSCH according to information of the PDCCH.
  • the random access response may include a random access preamble identifier (ID), an UL Grant, a temporary C-RNTI, a Time Alignment Command, and the like.
  • the random access preamble identifier is included in the random access response in order to notify terminals to which information such as the UL Grant, the temporary C-RNTI, and the Time Alignment Command would be valid (available, effective) because one random access response may include random access response information for one or more terminals.
  • the random access preamble identifier may be identical to the random access preamble selected by the terminal in Step 1.
  • the terminal may process each of the information included in the random access response. That is, the terminal applies the Time Alignment Command, and stores the temporary C-RNTI.
  • the terminal uses the UL Grant so as to transmit data stored in a buffer of the terminal or newly generated data to the base station (Step 3).
  • a terminal identifier should be essentially included in the data which is included in the UL Grant (message 3). This is because, in the contention based random access procedure, the base station may not determine which terminals are performing the random access procedure, but later the terminals should be identified for contention resolution.
  • two different schemes may be provided to include the terminal identifier.
  • a first scheme is to transmit the terminal's cell identifier through the UL Grant if the terminal has already received a valid cell identifier allocated in a corresponding cell prior to the random access procedure.
  • the second scheme is to transmit the terminal's unique identifier (e.g., S-TMSI or random ID) if the terminal has not received a valid cell identifier prior to the random access procedure.
  • the unique identifier is longer than the cell identifier.
  • the terminal After transmitting the data with its identifier through the UL Grant included in the random access response, the terminal waits for an indication (instruction) of the base station for the contention resolution. That is, the terminal attempts to receive the PDCCH so as to receive a specific message (Step 4).
  • the terminal attempts to receive the PDCCH so as to receive a specific message (Step 4).
  • the terminal determines that the random access procedure has been successfully (normally) performed, thus to complete the random access procedure.
  • the terminal checks data (message 4) transferred by the PDSCH that the PDCCH indicates. If the unique identifier of the terminal is included in the data, the terminal determines that the random access procedure has been successfully (normally) performed, thus to complete the random access procedure.
  • Figure 6 shows an operation procedure between a terminal and a base station in a non-contention based random access procedure.
  • the random access procedure is determined to be successfully performed by receiving the random access response information in the non-contention based random access procedure, thus to complete the random access process.
  • the non-contention based random access procedure may be performed in the following two cases: one is the handover procedure, and the other is a request by the command of the base station.
  • the contention based random access procedure may also be performed in those two cases.
  • First, for the non-contention based random access procedure it is important to receive, from the base station, a dedicated random access preamble without having any possibility of contention.
  • a handover command and a PDCCH command may be used to assign the random access preamble.
  • the terminal transmits the preamble to the base station. Thereafter, the method for receiving the random access response information is the same as that in the above-described contention based random access procedure.
